VFA and plasma XOR activity. VFA was not independently associated with plasma XOR activity. Point estimates and the 95% confidence interval for these relationships are shown by a solid line and gray band, respectively. Values for VFA and plasma XOR activity are expressed as cm2 and pmol/h/mL, respectively. Log plasma XOR activity was adjusted to the median values for age (56 years), sex (female), alcohol drinking habit (absence), smoking habit (absence), ALT (17 U/L), HbA1c (5.7 %), eGFR (76.8 mL/min/1.73 m2), log adiponectin level (0.9345 μg/mL), and log HOMA-IR (0.1461).
